True Corporation Investor Relations Strategy Drives Market Trust Following 2023 Amalgamation

Brickinfo News Agency – True Corporation has received market recognition in the Extel 2026 Asia Executive Team (ex-Japan/ANZ) survey and the 2025 Investment Analysts Association (IAA) Awards, reflecting a three-year investor relations strategy focused on transparency during its telecom amalgamation. The company's investor relations approach prioritized operational context and strategic transparency over standard performance summaries following the 2023 merger.

According to Naureen Quayum, Head of Investor Relations at True Corporation, the team shifted focus toward core integration themes and measurable milestones rather than basic data disclosures. In the second quarter of 2026, under Group Chief Executive Sigve Brekke and Chief Financial Officer Nakul Sehgal, True Corporation reported its sixth consecutive quarter of profitability, with Net Profit After Tax reaching THB 6.6 billion and EBITDA rising 13.5% year-on-year to THB 28.3 billion. The Board of Directors subsequently approved an interim dividend of THB 0.15 per share.

During periods when integration milestones experienced delays, the investor relations team addressed market expectation changes directly to maintain reporting consistency. Quayum stated that providing plain-language explanations during setbacks served as a core principle to maintain corporate credibility. The team also utilized investor feedback to re-evaluate internal assumptions and disclosures, functioning as a continuous feedback mechanism between executive leadership and capital markets.

In the sell-side results of the Extel 2026 Asia Executive Team survey, Quayum was ranked No. 2 among IR professionals in Asia's telecommunications sector (ex-Japan) and No. 3 in Thailand. True Corporation also secured awards across the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Investor Relations categories at the 2025 IAA Awards for Listed Companies. Quayum noted that while generative AI tools now automate balance sheet summaries and data analysis, human judgment and direct executive accountability remain essential for explaining complex strategic decisions to the market.
